Bellevue / Seattle Chin Reshaping Specialist – Dr. Philip Young

Many Bellevue / Seattle chin reshaping patients have a chin that is too small, or weak for their face, which may also make the nose appear longer than it really is. Oftentimes, the use of a chin implant can make the face appear more balanced. To achieve these goals, your Seattle chin reshaping surgeon will need to understand what makes a face beautiful and what doesn’t. This is where facial aesthetics come into play, the goals by which surgeons modify their techniques to achieve beauty. Dr. Young discovered through his training and experience seeing the results of many other surgeons, that these goals or aesthetics were outdated. Many surgeons were unable to define true beauty and hence the results of cosmetic surgery were often unnatural.

As a dedicated Seattle facial cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Young went on a mission to find out the answer. After 4–5 years of research, he discovered his exciting theory of facial beauty, Circles of Prominence. To bring out the proper balance of your face with chin reshaping, Dr. Young applies the concepts of his award-winning theory on beauty, along with his training and experience in performing over 1,200 face, neck and eyelid surgery procedures and over 3,000 other cosmetic and reconstructive procedures.

To achieve the results his chin reshaping Seattle / Bellevue patients desire, Dr. Young may employ:

  • Injectable dermal fillers, such as Restylane®, Perlane®, Radiesse®,
    Juvederm®, which can last up to eighteen months, depending on the
    product and your body’s metabolism.
  • Using permanent chin implants chosen to provide balance for your
    face, Dr. Young can produce a natural effect. Incisions are done
    through the mouth or below the chin. The procedure can also
    greatly enhance face-lift results, as chin projection may decrease
    with aging. After healing, the skin drapes smoothly over the implant,
    which conforms to the bone and is usually undetectable. The added
    projection of the chin results in significant improvement, which
    is especially apparent from a side profile view.
  • Fat transfer, a revolutionary way of transforming your face through
    no incisions. With this technique, Dr. Young can reshape your chin
    and mouth area to suit your needs and desires.

In a chin reduction procedure, incisions are made either in the mouth or under the chin, and Dr. Young will sculpt the bone to a more pleasing size.

Schedule your complimentary consultation with Dr. Young to learn more about the beautiful results that can be achieved through chin reshaping in Seattle / Bellevue.
